No Music, Part One -by Woody Fuller

The man who has no music in himself; nor is moved with concord of sweet sounds is fit for treason, stratagems, and spoils.
William Shakespeare
How could someone not like music?

Sam doesn’t. He claims movies do more for his brain than music does. BS, I immediately screamed back at him.

I suppose everyone is different.  And as much as I, or the crowd I roll with, consisting mainly of rock stars, DJs, band members, venue owners, singers, band managers, writers, music agents, bloggers, producers, music connoisseurs and enthusiasts ARE music; Eat, sleep, bleed, cry, feel and love music. However, it’s all about balance, so there must be those on the opposite end of the spectrum. Or else we would all be the same, and who would wants to be the same?

A fire was ignited under my behind; I am now on a mission to find as many people as I can who don’t like music and ask the big question. Why? How can you not like music? No favorite band? An iTunes library of under 100 songs? And no desire to explore more music; New genres, new artists. Even if it’s not new new, new to you.

Wherever you are.. I WILL find you.


I even tried to point out that the score of movie can truly make or break that movie. The intense kill scene, the chase scene, the first kiss.. everything is encompassed by music.

My hypothesis is that people who don’t like music will have some other means or ‘fix’ or ‘vice’ to fill the void that “not liking” music has left in your life. In my cousins situation he loves movies; He knows everything about every movie, every actor, a waking IMDB, per se.


So, the rest of YOU aren’t safe, I’m coming for all you music haters. Hate, hate, hate. Hide ya kids, hide ya wife, and hide ya husband too..
